According to the 2000 Census, American Indians and Alaskan Natives made up slightly
less than one percent of the total U.S. population. As the maps shows, this population tends
to be concentrated in specific geographic areas, often those designated as reservations by
the U.S. government, rather than distributed through the nation as a whole.
